Vietnamese Ambassador to the Czech Republic, Thai Xuan Dung, said the flight would take off from Prague carrying Vietnamese citizens from the Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland and Austria.
"This flight paved the way for the implementation of a joint governmental agreement in the operation of a direct flight between Hanoi and Prague right after the pandemic is under control. This will facilitate travel needs between the two countries as well as trade, economic, investment and tourism while raising bilateral ties to a new height in the context of the Vietnam EU Free Trade Agreement,” said Ambassador Dung.
